I see it on their faces
What's it like to have no family?
Their questions cloud their eyes
Did they ever arrest the man that took them?
Their curiosity it hindering their better judgement
Do they not know their pity is not wanted?

I'll tell you now
Blood family is nothing but that; blood
I have a family, I'm sure
We're as broken as broken can be
Five boys and me, all left to bait the wolves
But put enough pressure on us and we join forces
A unit bound by angst,
Connected to combat just that

Their words will bother me no more
What's it like to have no family?
Well, I'll tell you now
Five broken boys are all I have
But I believe that together,
Maybe we could be whole again
